Napanee Car Accident Lawyer


Car accidents can be fatal. According to a recent report on road safety statistics released by the Ontario Ministry of Transportation, 535 people were killed as the result of car accidents in one year alone.

According to the OPP, the provincial death rate from motor vehicle collisions recently reached an all-time high. When drivers fail to consider the potential outcomes of their wrongful actions, in a blink of an eye, their negligence can cause families to be torn apart, relatives to lose their loved ones, and unsuspecting road-users to perish in violent, horrific, and ultimately preventable circumstances. 

Car accidents in Napanee frequently result in severe, even catastrophic injuries. Because of distracted, inebriated, reckless, or otherwise negligent motor vehicle operators, unsuspecting road-users could sustain a number of injuries. Oftentimes, these include:

  • Whiplash
  • Soft tissue injuries
  • Broken or fractured bones
  • Cuts and lacerations
  • Strains and sprains
  • Musculoskeletal injuries
  • Facial and dental injuries
  • Internal organ damage
  • Neck and back injuries
  • Spinal cord injuries
  • Paralysis
  • Concussions
  • Traumatic brain injuries
  • Amputations
  • And more 

These injuries can have long-lasting, far-reaching implications for the survivors of local car accidents. In addition to the physical pain and psychological distress, injured car crash victims may find themselves facing precarious financial situations. This is particularly true for car accident survivors who have sustained injuries that make it impossible for them to continue working. Unable to earn the wages to which they have become accustomed, car accident survivors could struggle to afford their necessary injury-related expenses in addition to their regular costs of living. 

According to the province’s Highway Traffic Act, all drivers in Ontario have a legal responsibility to provide other road-users with a duty of care. This obligation is intended to protect everyone on the road from injury, including:

  • Other drivers
  • Their passengers
  • Motorcycle riders
  • Cyclists
  • Pedestrians
  • And possibly more

If a driver violates the rules of the road and engages in wrongful conduct, they have essentially shirked the duty of care they owe other road-users. If their misconduct causes an accident in which another party sustains injuries, the at-fault driver could be considered negligent. Therefore, they may be liable for damages incurred by car accident victims because of the injuries they sustained. 

That is why, if you sustained injuries in a collision caused by another driver’s negligence, you might be entitled to compensation.
